I bought a 95 Subaru Legacy with just over 140000. I know its an older car but I was looking for something affordable and reliable to make it over the mountains each day to work (snows a lot where I work). Within the first few days I had electrical issues which turned out to be an alternator ($135). Then within the next few week two wheel bearings and a cv joint ($300 with parts and labor). I only had the car for two and a halfmonthsand now the transmission has gone out. The power steering also feels not too far behind. I paid $2100 for the car, which was above KBB. I asked why and he said it was a solid car and that he could get more out of it for the area. I needed the AWD so I just paid the extra. He had stated that the car was looked over by a mechanic and that $400 worth of repairs had been done prior to selling it. He also stated that he had cleaned the engine compartment, which I believe is false advertisement. It wasn't even a week after buying it that I saw that it was leaking oil (about a quart every 400 miles). So in conclusion to all of this I called him to see if he would pay for half the transmission (which is fair giving what I had paid and what I had fixed). He pretty much told me t go f%*& myself and that was that. So don't EVER buy anything from this prick. He is over priced and wont even pay a penny to help you and his reputation out.
